A strange facet of our return to Blighty is getting Hen residency.
Luckily, she was born in the UK (Cardiff,) to an Aussie mother, and a Kiwi father, and lived there until a year old.
So we were able to apply for a UK passport on the strength of her birth certificate.
We were told that it has been approved, sent, and it is now awaiting collection from a local DHL depot!
Funnily enough, my Pommy passport was coming up to it’s expiry date, so I had to send off for a new one.
We may soon be in a situation where my "true blue" Aussie wife has a Pommy passport and I do not.
